The People arc Moving.
r,.,., r,.t

There are now $50 alliances in Dako-
tn and new organizations are being
formed at a rate exceeding that OF any
former period. Old organizations that
had nearly ceased to work are being re-
vived, and there is activity all along
the line of the farmers alliance move
ment. knights of labor are also be-
coming active in this territory and as
semblies are being organized in all
parts of the territory; fifty persons at
Slillbank have signed a petition for a
local assembly and have been waiting
some weeks for an organizing officer to
set them to work. The defeat of the
important measures adopted by the
Farmer branch of the last legislature
by the Lawyers and Bankers of the
Council. has not discouraged the peo-
pie, but has aroused them to more
earnest determination than ever to see
to it that the next Dakota legislature,
both branches, shall be composed of
men who will legislate for the interests
of the many who need legislation, and
not for the few who do not need it.
The knights of the Rake and Pitchfork,
and of Labor, are girding up their loins
for the great work soon to be done of
forming /; state constitution, electing Il
State Judiciary, and state officers; the
failure of the last legislature to do its
duty in the interest Of the people
against capital and monopoly, the
manifest sell out, body and soul, OF so
other robbers of the people, will in the
end prove Il blessing to the people; 1t
happened in just the right time, and it
will serve to arouse the people so
thoroughly that they will not rest un-
til they have engrafted upon state
constitution such provisions and safe
| guards us VIII cffectually protect them
from theignorance, duplicity or rascali-
ty as the case may be, OF such men as
last winter voted for the repeal Of the
law making usury a crime, and against
the adoption of the Minnesota Usury
law known as the Sprague bill. and
other wholesome measures Of relief
that were defeated against the wish Of
nine tenths of Dakotians. When the
Gods wish to destroy they first make
mad," is a saying that will be proved
with vengence by the people of Da
kota in the next two years.

japanese In America.

The first Japanese to settle in San
Francisco were eleven persons, who mr..
rived in 1870. Now there are more than
eight hundred Japanese in the CITY, OF
whom about forty are m OF these
torty twenty arc married and their
children attend the public schools. These
Japanese have come to San Francisco
to learn English and partly to escape
military service in Japan, and they are
generally we'll educated. They arc
mostly engaged. in house service in San
Francisco, in which they are proficient.
A few of them are nominal Christians.
while the rest are atheists. s'The fortunes
Of hell" they say care graded according
to the amout of money one has," When
asked why more japanese women have
not come over one of. them said: s.The
less women the better; a woman's tongue
three inches long can kill a man six feet

A Highland Shepherd.

A traveller in Scotland says: Here
and there a lonely shepherds hut is
passed. A few hens strobe over the
open space in front, where p~estilential
odors poison the sweet mountain air.
Some cabbages in a plot overrun with
weeds, and fenced in rudely with stones,
were growing on n side. To admire
his colleys is a sure way to a shepherds
heart. They sleep with the children,
and share the remains of their porridge,
and are treated in every way as valuable
allies.
A shepherds life would be a dreary
thing on a wild December afternoon.
with the wind blowing the slcet in his
face, were it not for sDonald" and
"Wallacc." They are apparently very
reverent doggies, too, for they follow
their master to church in a manner
wholly different from thei. frolicsomc
demeanor on week days.
The cottage itself is low, of rough
stone, rooted with peat aud heather,
fastened down with straw bands, and
there arc sure to be two or three lads
and lasses in front playing with a kitten.
As for sanitary arrangements, there are
none, but the fresh air and pure waters
forbid disease. Nothing more pictur-
esque than such a cottage, with its thin
column Of smoke, could be imagined
at a suitable distance from the odors.

Throwing Passengers Overheard.

The barbarous custom of throwing
passengers overheard as soon as the
breath has left their bodies when thew
die at sea on a Transatlantic steamer.
has nearly run its course. Since our
statement that an ocean passenger steam
ship is legally bound to deliver persons
who pay their passage in advance at
their port of destination, whether they
die or not, we have received assurances
that convince us that we are correct.
AS caskets can be obtained in which a
body can be kept in a fair state of
preservation two weeks without the use
of ice, all European passenger steamers
should be compelled to carry them.
The relatives or friend of those who die
at sea would gladly pay the extra ex-
pcnse cntailed in preserving their bodies
and returning them to land for decent
and Christian burial. = Nlao York. Marine

A Good that Fruit Does.

1t is as a f%ebrifugc that fruit has its
highest value, with both old and young.
With the approach of what the poet calls
the melancholy days of the year, our
bodies, if not keyed up to the pitch Of
perfect health, are sensitive to the
changes of temperature, especially if the
air is surcharged with heavy moisture. At
such a time we are liable to fever and to
chills, which, from a neglected condition
of the body and from consequent low
vitality, may easily change to a conges
tive and dangerous form. In this case
the value of the acid of fresh fruit is
easily indicated, and the result of it's use
is speedily shown in the breaking up of
morbid conditions, the Frightening of
that physical barometcr-the face. and
the elasticity given to the step.
AS is we'll known our habits of eating
and drinking tend continually to super
excitement Of blood and brain, and to
the development and exhibition of the
purely animal part of us. Too many of
u foods arc admittedly prepared for
the stimulation of our passions, aud as
for alcoholic drinks, none will deny that
hey are used, even when pure, bcyo nd
all reason or safety. AS the doctor we'll
says, the substitution Of fruit for stimu-
lants, would relieve much of the need
for restraint on wrong doors. This is
certain, for our heads would be clearer,
our blood cooler, our nerves stcadier, our
impulses more subject to reason, and life
would be 100 per cent. better than it is
to-daY.-IHe Cuisine.

SCRAPS.

The physical condition of steel il
known to be unsettled for many hours
after being rolled. Finally it comes tc
a state of rest, but any test of its quality
before that period arrives is misleading.
A discovery that may lead to impor.
tant practical results has been made by
Walter Hempil, a German cxperimenter,
in the observation that the quantity OF
electricity furnished by n machine in.
creases considerably when the latte,
works in ar atmosphere of compressed
air.
Dr.. M. Flcischer has conducted ex.
periments on the action of the seq mud
on Moorlands and sands. In the first
year there was no appreciable result, but
in the second and third years there was
a beneficial influence manifested, which,
however, declined again in the fourth
year.
A new theory, propoundcd by NJ.
Ludovic Breton, as to the formation OF
coal is that it is produced by the sink.
ing Of floating islands like those which
now occur on many lakes and rivers.
These islands are composed chiefly OF
turf, which being swallowed up by the
water, becomes fossilized ut the bottom.
At the Hudson River railroad shops is
a toothlcss steel circular saw twenty-cight
inches in diameter and thrcc-eighths OF
On inch thick at the edge which will cut
OIL a bar of iron in a short time. A
stream of water is kept pouring ovcr it
to prevent cracking. The ends of rail
wear out first, md when cut off tho rest
can be used on side tracks.
DR.. Dawson, in the Rocky Mountains,
has discovered a remarkable i~urasso-
cretaceous fora. It is found in sand.
stones, shalcs and conglomerates, with
seams OF coal. The beds lie in troughs
Of tie r''cozic formations, and extend
10: 100 mites north and south. The plants
arc coulter. cycoda and ferns. Some arc
iden.ic"l with species from the ~jurassic
of Siberia and the lower cretaceous OF
Greenland.
The Baltimore Sun is authority for the
following description of what is prob
ably tho smallest oscillating engine in
the world: Its bore is one-sixth of an
inch and the stroke one-eighth. The
crank and wheel-shaft weigh eight grains.
the cylinder five grains, and the stand
and pillar twelve. The whole weight is
twenty-five grains. The engine is the
size of a collar button and can be covered
by a child's thimb.e. 1t will be run by
compressed air.
On the eastern coast of the Caspian
Sea a curious change is in progress. The
Kora Bobhaz is an estuary nearly separa-
ted from the main body of the sea by q
bank through which there is an inlet.
The evaporation from this gulf is 80
great that q current continually sets in
from the Caspian, and, as there is no re-
turn current, the gulf becomes more and
more saliferous, and a deposit of salt is
IN course of formation. In time this
gulf will be cut off from the Caspian.
and will then be dried up and become
an extensive salt bed.
